Yes, the colormatching FC test on the 2006 is DPD (NOT the same as FAS-DPD) and is pink. It can fade out at high FC levels. The TF100 is OTO and reads yellow and will just get darker shades through yellow, orange and brown as FC gets higher.

It's like brushing your teeth: You can spend a couple minutes a day and pennies a week or go to the dentist once a year and spend several thousand dollars.A pool is like a pet - you have to feed it every day, even the days you don't want to play with it!

My K2006 doesn't appear to have a colour matching FC test, just FAS-DPD.

Re: Which one?

Richard, did the older 2006 have a color match in it? The "Test Kits Compared" page shows the 2006 as having no OTO included.

I'm getting the K-2006 confused with the K-2005. Nevermind.
